Apparently, there is something different than that ID mismatch error which makes Amazon block my transfer.

Let me know if you have other suggestions. I would like to make my life easier for the future. My main inconvenient to convert myself (with Calibre) the .epub to a format compatible with my Kindle and send it through wire is that I don't always have a cable to connect the Kindle to my computer (especially when I travel). I hate carying a micro usb cable just for my Kindle when all my devices (except Kindle) are USB C. Besides that, I do these transfers remotely and asynchronously (I don't always have my Kindle and my laptop/PC with me at the same time). Maybe not big deals, but I'd really like to understand how Amazon is acting on the transfered books so I can prevent further blocking like this one.

I really appreciate your help!

Send to Kindle (IMHO) is more hassle the it's worth.
